Notes: Timothy, b.17 June, 1693 in New York was my ancestor. He was sent as a youth back to France to learn to be a silversmith, a trade which would be passed down several generations in his family. While there, he married, and his son Timothy Jr. was born. He returned to America, where his wife died in New Haven, CT, 5 Nov 1735 at 33 years. Timothy married Mary Goodrich 29 Sep.1736 and had more children. He and his son, Timothy Jr. are listed in the records as Colonial silversmiths. Work by them is preserved in the collection of Yale University. The name "Bontecou" is actually of Dutch origin, and is claimed to go back to the Dutch navigator Guilliame Isbrand Bontekoe, who lived in the early 1600's.

When he was eighteen, he rented his own farm and married Grietje Van Ness, the daughter of Cornelius Hendrickse van Ness of Albany and Mycke Hendrieux van der Burchgraeff. After their marriage before 1646 he and his wife and two children went to New Amsterdam (1649). He signed a contract to superintend the Bowery and cattle of Peter Stuyvesant in New Amersfoort and moved into a house on Canarsie Lane in Flatlands, Brooklyn, now known as the Wyckoff Homestead. His remains are supposed to have been buried in land now covered by the altar of this church.
